Thai Sesame Beef

1. Combine onions, soy sauce, water, sherry, sugar, sesame seeds, garlic and pepper in a bowl, and mix well to dissolve sugar.
2. Place meat in a shallow glass dish and pour marinade over. Prick all over with a fork to allow marinade to penetrate.
3. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator overnight and turn occasionally.
4. Drain meat and broil or grill to desired doneness, basting occasionally with marinade.
5. Garnish with green onions and serve with hot brown rice.
   Makes 4 servings.
